RE: latch free - library cache

For various reasons, we've been using CS=F on 8.1.7 for awhile now. We did
experience problems on 8.1.7.2 with incorrect results returned on a query
and a monthly visit from our friend (ORA-7445), but not with 8.1.7.4. We're
on HP/UX 11.0 and not running Oracle Apps, so this probably doesn't mean
squat to the original poster.

Also, for killing sessions on Solaris, you may want to try to kill the
process from the OS instead of killing the session from within Oracle. Try
"kill" or "kill -15" (should be the same) before you "kill -9" the process.
That "-9" can be icky in some cases, at least with HP/UX. And when you kill
it from the OS, do NOT kill the session from within Oracle. No need to
confuse PMON.
